Wow interesting break down of the stats.

I truely think that if Bill D. had gave Larry Brown a raise for winning the championship his first year in town he might have stayed loyal for another couple of years. Larry Brown is all about money and feeling loved and wanted. Larry must not have gotten coddled as a child or something.

Larry is a great X and O's coach and while his offense was not great it was an upgrade from Rick C. I totally agreed with his appraoch to the 3 point shooting. Take the shot only within the flow of the offense and only after the ball goes into the paint first. I just hated seeing last season Sheed or Chauncey jack up wild 3 pointers. Sometimes these guy's had like 14 or 15 seconds on the clock and were like 5 steps behind the 3 point line and they were jacking them up. They were very poor shots and often there was no one positioned for a rebound so the other team grabed the board.


As for Flip, I think he is a very one dimensional coach that can't make adjustments in a playoff series. It is very easy to put a game plan together to beat a team for just one night. Even during the regular season when we see the rare home and home back to back games teams normally don't win the second game the next night. That is because the coach and the players saw what the other team was doing and made adustments. Flip just doesn't seem to make the adustments or make them fast enough to make a difference. Flip doesn't have a poor playoff track record for no reason. I rest my case!!

Larry Brown is a (certifiable) sp?? nut job but he got the job done.
Flip has dismantled our defense first identity and lead us to a pumbling by Shaq and Wade and most likely back down to area code .500%
